Johny's Luncheonette

Proper old school diner in the Chelsea / Flower District area. This place is small with a counter and only a couple small tables so there might be a wait when you arrive. Typical diner food available for breakfast. All made fresh at order and done really well. Just FYI There is no free refills for ice coffee but plain coffee you can get refills. What is also great is that this place is not over priced like many of the diners these days. We would even travel from UWS to come for breakfast here.

The atmosphere is awesome if you love old school no fuss type diners! It's like going back in time, in a good way! The food is for real, homemade and delicious 😋 Went twice in the same week for breakfast. Get the pancakes! Go early or be prepared to stand outside and wait. Don't worry, it moves quickly and is worth the wait!

An International Foodie Pal suggested hitting this spot before I left NYC. I had a Salami and Extra Fried Egg Bagel with Lettuce, Tomato, and American Cheese. A meal comes with coffee or tea and there is a slight upcharge for iced coffee. They have Splenda or sugar for sweeteners and offer milk or Land O Lakes Half and Half for creamers. This is a tiny luncheoette and I'm not sure what the seating capacity is. I arrived around 8:45 AM and just missed the crowds waiting outside. There is no way a wheelchair can access this restaurant and if partially mobile there really isn't anywhere to keep a wheelchair or wheeled walker on the floor while you dine. There is one table for two where the two counters meet and perhaps a wheeled walker could fit there. So long as you have partial mobility you can walk through the edges of the counter seats. I didn't go to the bathroom as it seemed like a tight zig zag to the kitchen and my hotel happened to be in walking distance. Very friendly and fast service. Credit cards need a 10.00 USD minimum but there is an ATM machine outside. With my add on orders my meal went over 10.00 but even with tip was well under 20.00 USD. You pay at the register where they have your meal tickets for check out.
